HAPPY WEEKEND!

A few links for your weekend leisure time...

- A budget-friendly cocktail dress that goes with everything in your closet.

- Club Monaco's new arrivals are good. This navy skirt has just the right amount of flounce.

- Facebook is rolling out a new look. Does anyone else wish they'd just let it be for a while?

- If you're looking for a good movie, watch this. Ali MacGraw is too chic for words and I promise you'll be sobbing by the end. (Isn't that the universal sign of an awesome movie?)

- Puppy in pajamas. What more could you want?

- Put a bow on it! My newest shoe crush.

- This striped shirt belongs on my body. Doesn't it look so comfy?

Have a good one, friends! xx

WEAR IT NOW, WEAR IT LATER

I don't really believe in having separate wardrobes for each season. Besides the obvious (snow boots and swimsuits, for instance), I like most of my clothes to transition seamlessly from summer to winter and vice versa. This means relying on basics like fitted oxford shirts, great jeans, lightweight sweaters, and one of my new favorites: the trench coat. Here's how I'd wear it now and how I'd wear it when it warms up in a couple months...

Madewell trench coat

Design Darling studs // Loren Hope earrings

Tory Burch tote // Tory Burch wicker basket

Elizabeth & James booties // Ferragamo flats

Classic camel and navy now, a pop of turquoise later. Finish either look with this killer cuff and a swipe of my favorite pink lipstick and you've got instant polish. Are you a fan of the trench coat? What's a recent wardrobe staple you've invested in? Have a great weekend! xx

PRETTY IN PASTELS

I took outfit pictures (coming soon!) in a white dress over the weekend and noticed how frighteningly pale I am... which doesn't bode well for my newfound love of mint greens and periwinkle blues. Alas, for those of you who aren't ghostly white this time of year:

Splendid chambray stripe dress // Blaque Label dress // Club Monaco dress

Equipment cashmere sweater // Vince tank top // Monrow striped tee

Club Monaco dress // Milly sheath // Alice + Olivia dress

Free People top // Joie top // Diane von Furstenberg blouse

Rebecca Minkoff bag // Joie smoking slippers // Design Darling bow cuff

Madewell tote // Tory Burch tote // J.Crew pumps

I'm usually a brights kind of girl (evidence here, here, and here) but I'm kind of digging these softer hues! What's your color crush at the moment?
